I bought the Stage 8 bolts and crawled back under for another 2-4 hour job(no car lift) and installed the locking header bolts. So when you think about just the labor alone using non-locking bolts, that 42 bucks doesn't seem so expensive now, does it????
    That was my point. How much is your time and effort worth?

    The OEM SRT8 header bolts have worked great for me for two years now, not to mention they're pretty cheap. They have threadlocker pre applied.

    Another good tip: apply some 850* Copper RTV gasket maker high temp silicone around the OEM header gasket and the collector flange of the header. Great little extra surety for a tight seal! I'll post you pic of what I'm talking about.





    Let the good times roll buddy!
